Chair's Summary

1. Regarding the prioritised list of requirements it was agreed that
appraisal should be shifted to the number one priority group while regulation
should be kept within the less important group due to its complexity though
two votes for shifting it existed. Further it was agreed to keep one "blank",
that is general, Global Metadata in the first part as all Global Metadata
were found in the second.

2. No progress was possible on the XML-RDF-OWL discussion, because all
three volunteers were absent. Also no volunteer was found for comparing the
possibilities for including RDF or OWL with existing XML markup languages.

Review of the ranked requirements

Marc: everybody clear on history of list of
requirements? (explains...)
... should first and second priority items be shifted among groups or
kept?
... Appraisals might be shifted to core description.

Dylan: agrees that appraisals should be
shifted.

<eva> yet

Eva: asks for reconsideration within 1 week.

Marc: let's give everybody 1 week for
reconsideration.

Bjoern: would like to safe regulation.

Marc: reminds that this ranking is only helping
us but not mandatory.
... considers No. 11 as difficult to accomplish example (semantics of links
to the rest of the world)

Enrico: let's have a borderline group (e.g.
appraisal, regulation)

Bjoern: Catherine stresses need of
regulation.

Marc: if we do not have anybody vote against
appraisal: include it.
... would not include regulation due to added complexity.
... there is a good reason to include regulation but for the moment we will
keep it in the second group.

Bjoern: agrees to keep regulation less
prioritized.

Christian: Global Metadata is all in group
two.

Marc: let's have one "blank" Global Metadata in
the first part of the list.
